agreed

but this season, in his last three games, we've only scored two goals.

So, at the moment at least, he's not turning us into some fluent attacking side.

Not sure Villa are relegation rivals to be honest. 6 points clear and a decent run in (n/m) (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:02:57
- it's not just about relegation though - they're only 1pt above us (NCFC) - CWC, Jan 21, 23:14:13
- they will be if they try to build their team around Holt and Hoolahan (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:04:02
  - They're giving the lads a hand. (n/m) (NCFC) - norway, Jan 21, 23:09:38
  - They're not though. They'll add options to what they already have. (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:07:24
    - I reckon he felt he was losing the dressing room (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:13:42
      - Didn't look like he'd lost the dressing against Liverpool (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:24:08
      - Hollahan is like Holt, decent footballer, and probbaly not breaking the bank (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:17:12
        
        not sure we should really put Holt and Hoolahan on the same level anymore (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:23:25
        
        "borderline obese" (NCFC) - Charles21, Jan 21, 23:31:52
        
        And Elmander is a class above Holt? Don't see it I'm afraid (n/m) (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:26:55
        
        I think Mecagoenti is getting Hoolahan's assist contribution (1 in 5 starts) mixed up with (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:30:50
        
        Plus, assist contribution is a bit of a red herring for a player like Wes. (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:35:53
        
        agreed (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:37:43
        
        3 matches, meaningless twaddle as usual. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:40:53
        
        He's not a class above the Holt of two years ago (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:30:10
        
        Holt looked surprisingly good against Liverpool (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:31:36
        
        hmm.... Holt v Liverpool (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:36:00
        
        clearly you didn't watch the Liv Villa game then... (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:37:47
        
        I thought we weren't too bad as an attacking unit at Liverpool (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:40:28
        
        We were awful. Elmander didn't even manage a shot (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:42:46
        
        Elmander's role is to link the play and hold the ball up (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:45:12
        
        I'd probably expect us to get a few shots off given the game was over on about 30 minutes (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:47:18
        
        everyone knows Elmander has been awful for us (NCFC) - Charles21, Jan 21, 23:37:42
        
        no they don't (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 21, 23:39:09
        
        Palace was utterly forgettable for all concerned. Conditions were horrendous. (n/m) (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:45:23
        
        He's a good defensive attacker, I'll give him that (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:44:06
        
        We'll have to agree to disagree on that one! (n/m) (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Jan 21, 23:31:21
        
        Elmander never made the grade at Bolton and we can see why here (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 21, 23:26:54
